Boiled Patty Cakes

Submitted by Chas in Melbourne

Boil together :

3 / 4 cup sugar

3 / 4 cup water

3 / 4 cup sultanas

pinch salt

4 oz butter

1 / 2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon mixed spice

1 tablespoon golden syrup.

When sugar has dissolved, allow to cool.

Add : 1 egg, 3 / 4 cup plain flour, 3 / 4 cup self-raising flour. Stir until combined.

Spoon mixture into patty paper pans (or you can make muffin sized cakes). Bake at 450F in top of oven approximately 12 minutes.

I like to ice these with icing make with butter, vanilla and icing sugar, combined with some milk.
